An estimated 392,000 Minnesotans could lose their current Medicare Advantage plans in 2027 as insurers reduce coverage or leave markets across the state.

Fifteen Minnesota counties will have no Medicare Advantage options, while three counties will also lose Medicare Cost plans, leaving Original Medicare as the only option.

Medicare Open Enrollment runs October 15 through December 7. Enrollees are urged to review their coverage, including doctors, prescriptions and costs.
